Historically most weren't attracted to their husband. Yet they were happy because they knew the alternative was death from starvation or worse.
Before my grandmother died I asked her why my grandfather. She said, "He wasn't the smartest or most attractive, but he was a good provider, protected us, and took care of me and the family. That was good enough for me."
Women back then were better and knew their duty to their family as well as greater society. Life wasn't easy but they were significantly less selfish and dilusional.
Europe is less than a generation from turning into a 3rd world shithole but with nukes.
Terrifying.
Retards not realizing everyone in the car would require 5 point harness seat belts at times to have such a feature in emergency or it would likely cause more problems than what can already be done to mitigate.
"everyone look at the car do thruster flips..."
"now if you don't mine donating to my gofundme so we can build a Mars Rover. We only need 1b for the program and testing. Don't worry, shareholders will keep all proceeds. And by shareholders, I mean me. Thank you and have a good day." - Elon
Replying to @Phoxotic
Yes, it is also how we land things on the Moon and Mars, since they have no atmosphere for parachutes to work. This is a tech demo to get investment for what I am guessing is a lunar rover problem for the people we plan to have living on the Moon in a few years.
Dating is and always was a form of implicit prostitution. Actual prostitutes in the early days hated it as it cut into their business. Wealthy women saw it as low class and had more self respect.
See "charity girl" for reference.
This is correct. I was just speaking with @chumbawamba22 yesterday about how fucked everything is that we can't even agree to how it will all fall apart. There are simply too many ways it all goes to shit.
The fake and gayness is soo complex, it's all at the brink of implosion.
Said implosion will make the Great Depression look like a mild recession.
As much as it pains me to say this, we really do need an economic collapse. A lot of the delusion, erratic behavior, and decadence that we see is directly connected to our fraudulent economic system.
Decadence distorts value, meaning that 1) easy times create an excessive preference for short-term pleasure, 2) cheap dopamine becomes more valuable than the things that actually improve people’s lives and society, and 3) society abandons what’s needed for long-term growth.
The engine behind this is fake, easy money. When resources and money are scarce, a misallocation is consequential. But if everyone can get access to cheap capital, then areas of life can become detached from whether they actually produce anything of value.
On a broader scale, think about how much money has gone to giving women fake email jobs, DEI hires, HR departments, and how inefficient most organizations are now.
On an individual scale, think about how much people spend on slop food, OnlyFans, gambling, excessive partying, and other forms of cheap dopamine.
In a system of scarcity, none of this would exist or be nearly as inflated. Why? Because these are misallocations of resources that would normally be punished. But in our easy credit economy, people and institutions can essentially bail themselves out with more debt and keep the misallocation going.
Now, most consequential of all, think about how much relationships are falling apart. Women have inflated lifestyles due to jobs they don’t deserve, access to credit, and simps willing to pay. Their standards have risen to completely unrealistic levels.
In a world of scarcity, there are no more fake email jobs, Klarna, and endless simps. I even saw a video of a “recession indicator” where a woman discussed how her friend’s strip club is struggling.
Turns out throwing money at pussy isn’t so smart when money gets tight.
In a world of scarcity, just being an able-bodied male who can provide the basics is more than enough. This is the world our ancestors grew up in prior to 1945.
Conclusively, this is the world we are going back to. The reckoning is coming, and it will not only correct the value distortion, but humble the people who need it.
Wrong way of viewing that. Because of the exponential progression feedback loop, there will be a small window where it would create something near infinite value, THEN it would crash to zero.
So for a short period the stock would skyrocket. So you don't discount by 50%, you increase the value by a lot for such a weighting.
Crypto taught us that. Hope and promise pays off for a moment. The that moment ends and you realize your just gave all of your money to a retarded Jew that doesn't understand what a stoploss is.
when valuing anthropic's ipo, don't forget to include p(boom) and p(doom) in ur ev calculus:
p(boom): they get us to infinite abundance, in which case money doesn't matter anymore
p(doom): they kill us all, in which case money doesn't matter anymore
i put p(boom or doom) at 50%
the other 50% is the boring middle, where we just keep going to work forever. tragically, that's the scenario where money still matters
therefore all price targets of anth must be discounted by 50%
Medical insurances stopped being insurance about 10-15 years ago. They're little more than socialist redistribution plans now.
Just save a little each month for expected need down the road, and pay out of pocket. It's SOOOO much cheaper.
CAN SOMEONE EXPLAIN HOW THIS IS ACTUALLY LEGAL.
My coworker pays $132 a month for dental coverage. That's $1,584 a year.
She needed a root canal. $2,100 total cost.
Her plan's annual maximum benefit: $1,500.
So insurance covered $1,500, she paid the remaining $600 out of pocket, and she'd already handed them $1,584 that same year just to be allowed in the door.
She paid more in premiums than the plan was even capable of covering.
That's not insurance. That's a subscription with a spending cap lower than the thing it's supposed to protect you from.
Software devs need a new way to protect their code. If AI can clone software from an installed package, IP becomes worthless and nobody builds anything except for funsies.
The problem: people with zero skill can clone software, but they can't improve it. So why would anyone make a product better when anyone can clone it at the press of a button?
Good UI takes style, taste, and experience. AI averages existing knowledge — it can't give a novice what a skilled team produces. Fire the skilled people, and eventually nothing new exists.
Add in the lazy person who clones rather than builds from scratch to save a buck, and you get a serious incentive mismatch. We're likely already seeing it with Fable and Astra. The first big test will be GTA6 — and how fast it gets cloned.
Will the multi billion dollar piece of software, that took a decade to make, get cloned inside a few weeks, rendering the entire project a loss?
Fairly accurate representation of Elon vs Dario.

WATCH THIS: The truth about the college cartel is out! 🚨 Under 10% of U.S. jobs legally require a degree—most can be launched with real-world skills and vocational training alone.
Yet Radical Democrats push bloated degree inflation that drowns young Americans in debt. Republicans are fighting to end the college scam, expand skilled trade apprenticeships, and put American workers first! 🛠️🇺🇸 #DegreesScam #SkillsOverDegrees #AmericaFirst
Public execution for her crimes would probably get above a 50% approval today.
I tried to subpoena Ilhan Omar and her brother-husband’s immigration records. Both parties blocked it in Oversight.
This morning HSI raided her home with a judicially authorized warrant, presumably over the same paperwork.
If the fraud is proven, she should be denaturalized and deported home to Somalia.
A whole essay written with a single sentence negating the whole thing:
"...as long as he doesn't creep you out..."
That's just the original version of "the ick".
Her entire overly long post saying to give guys a chance buy caveats it with "as long as he doesn't give you the ick".
The ick/creepy: something a given guy does that a woman doesn't find socially acceptable for his given level of attractiveness
Nothing in that post will be done because she gave the same conditional out which is causing failure everywhere.
Attention Young Women:
I am surrounded by 20ish-year-old guys who want to date and get married. They are smart, capable, hard working and cute. They're hesitant to ask girls out or don't know where to find the good ones. If you are one of the good ones, here's what you need to do.
Step 1: Change your expectations about how you'll meet. You might've built a story up in your head about the first look that resembles a plot line from Gilmore Girls. It won't happen like that, and your insistence that it be instantly Instagrammable is knocking a lot of good guys out of the dating pool.
Step 2: Get fit. You don't need to be a size 4, but this generation of young men is serious about stewarding their bodies and they want a woman who cares for hers.
Step 3: Grow your hair out (and don't dye it blue). It may sound superficial to you, but these young men want a girl who is feminine, and long locks are an indicator that you are.
Step 4: Go clean your list. You are probably too selective about who you say yes to because you evaluate a coffee offer with the seriousness of a marriage proposal. So you say "no" when he asks for your number if he's an inch too short or three years too old, or does not yet make six figures, or wants to have a farm someday or doesn't want to have a farm someday. Ditch your list. As long as he does not creep you out, if he has the guts to ask you on a date, say yes.
Step 5: Sign up for any event where you know like-minded guys will be. The local Young Republicans mixer, a hiking group, a lively singles youth night at church. If you're not seeing these guys, it's because you're not situating yourself where these guys are. Change your routine.
Step 6: Get a gym membership and dress modestly. That not only accomplishes step two, but it puts you in regular contact with a lot of guys who are working to better themselves. But don't set a thirst trap. Stand out by wearing workout gear that draws attention to your face, not your cleavage.
Step 7: When the guy who you see every Wednesday and Friday, who has given you pointers on better form for your RDLs, asks for your number, unless you genuinely feel unsafe, give it to him.
Step 8: When he calls you two days later and asks you out for coffee or dinner, say yes. Even if you don't "like" him. This matters for two reasons. 1. You are conditioning him to initiate, and that will benefit you if you date long-term, or benefit other women he asks out in the future because you conditioned him to associate the risk of asking with the reward of a "yes." Hopefully some other girl is building up your future husband's confidence by saying yes when he asks her on a coffee date. 2. You don't actually know who you like. 50% of women marry a guy where there was no initial spark. They did not know they liked him until they saw him for a few weeks or a few months.
Step 9: IMPORTANT - learn to flirt. That doesn't mean licking your lips suggestively or wearing a miniskirt. It means singling him out for attention. A guy is much more likely to ask you on a date if you've signaled that you will say yes. You do that by making eye contact, smiling at him, and responding to any small "bids" for connection.
Step 10: He may not get all the dating etiquette exactly right that first time. He may not show up with flowers or open the door for you. But whatever he does that is commendable, notice it and thank him for it. A woman's greatest power is not bossing and directing, it is responding to and encouraging masculine energy in the right direction through sweetness and precise validation. Don't knock a sincere guy out of the running because he didn't execute a date perfectly. On the first date, the third, the fifth, you are evaluating for worldview alignment and character. Not elaborate planning for your night out.

The biggest weakness to AI is it's only as useful as the operator can make it.
In the hands of someone with a 140 iq it can do a lot of things.
In the hands of someone with an 80 iq it's mostly just a glorified Google search.
This is why I'm not sure AI will be as revolutionary as people think it will be. The population of globally high IQ people (110+), is in rapid decline while the population of middle or low IQ (80 or lower) is rising fast.
To make AI useful you have to be able to understand your objective goal. Even if the model can do quantum physics, it takes a person with a high enough IQ to be able to work through the problem and ask good questions to the machine.
Someone with a 75 IQ doesn't likely even ponder what those questions might be. At best said person might be able to ask the questions of a few points higher than himself/herself.
AI will be useful, of course, but the TAM for it as a product will shrink into the future.
